They sneak in unsuspected
unnoticed and stealthy
they rob us blind and
make themselves wealthy
Professional thievery
is difficult to curtail
most unequipped for the task
and are doomed to fail
Law enforcement is weak
despite all the lip service
their insufficient efforts
leave me rather nervous
I've become a vigilante
and pick up my weapon
a life changing calling
handed down from heaven
Before I strike out
I must secure my home
and relate of this escapade
in this very poem
Visit this client I did
his facility they did ravage
the damage wasn't pretty at
all, it was definitely savage
With me I brought tools
to repair the foundation
he hoped it'd be quick
I said there's no elation
Because the work ahead
of me was so grim
his confidence undaunted
he said, do it, Jim*
Four hours exhausted
in repairing his world
like a surgeon I cut
and the damage I hurled
Day turned to night
when I professed I was done
He turned to me pleased
and was glad I had won
Counseling him sternly
said he had plenty to fear
You must be better armed
against the fight with spyware
* Okay, he said Jaycee, but it just wasn't rhyming ;)

The poem is funny, jaycee, but the fact that we constantly have to be vigilant isn't. It is a day to day fight against them. Wearying but necessary.
